The future of the board

[Brad the Impala]

Well, I believe what has happened is...the number of paid posters...yes folks, the guys that are getting paid to post here in order to give the appearance that the board is active...has outnumbered any genuine posters. Before the pandemic those guys kinda kept a thread running ( despite the fact they more than likely are not really interested in the topic ) , but now in desperation they post anything to earn their money and their fellow paid posters support them, with "likes" and comments. Provided that the few remaining genuine posters are aware of "the game" I guess no harm done, but if they are not aware, then they are bing duped.

Who are the paid posters that you are referencing? Is it actually feasible that this board makes profit enough to pay people to post? I thought your point was that the forum was on it's last legs and should be put to sleep!

payed posters? somebody has paranoia crisis

[a447]

Well, I'm not paid.

In any case, the board probably couldn't afford me!

Zeb, where on earth did you get that idea from?? Can you name the posters involved? How do you know this? Did they tell you they were getting paid? How much? Who is paying them? Are they paid by the number of words? Is it by the frequency of posts? Do they get a bonus for each thread they start?

So many questions left unanswered.

Zeb has obviously went off the deep end. Maybe due to Covid fatigue, or who knows.

Quite obviously, nobody here is being paid to post on SGT. I don't know where the hell he would have pulled that form.

Ha ha paid posters - ok, sorry I doubt that any / many of us are buying that one - that's one conspiracy theory to far I think :-)

As said above I doubt this board turns much IF ANY profit and whilst Moses may use it to help other parts of his business ( which is totally fine of course) I doubt 10 or 20 or us rambling on about whatever does much to keep him living to the standards he desires :-)

m also guessing that even if it DID turn a tiny profit that Moses "DOESN"T NEED THE MONEY" :-) lol

PS If I'm wrong Moses - please forward me your "Paid Posters Fund" application forms immediately - just please dont link that payment to a required quality of the posted content or I and most of us the rest of us on here are FUCKED and we might owe YOU some money ! :-)

The Board put up with hydras (even though the rules strictly forbade it),

They posted multiple times, day in day out. Often personal attacks to provoke a response. They (he) has suddenly stopped.

Why?

Could it be the SGT Hit Squad? The same thing happened to The Colonel.

I think there is a TV Series in this.

Dead from Covid, is my guess, but who knows.
